Chapter 1096 The Skeleton of an Ultimate Powerhouse
Temptation, what is temptation?
This is fucking temptation!
The current state of Xiaohai Douluo is that of an undead creature created by Huo Yuhao's necromancy.
Huo Yuhao is still able to direct Xiaohai Douluo's actions.
But he didn't do that because he hadn't truly regarded Xiaohai Douluo as his undead creature.
But now that Xiaohai Douluo has brought it up, Huo Yuhao's mind has started to wander.
"How about it? With your special abilities, my skeleton can be a major trump card for you." Xiaohai Douluo's voice seemed to be full of temptation.
Even after his soul departed, Huo Yuhao was still able to refine his skeleton into a spirit.
It's just that the soul pressure from the ultimate powerhouse is missing; overall, it's still a huge profit!
However, Huo Yuhao was not blinded by the momentary surprise, because he always remembered a sentence written in Ye Nanxiao's storybook: "Misfortunes never come singly, but blessings never come in pairs."
Finding the Nautilus shell by chance on this trip is already a lucky thing, why would I want anything else?
At the same time, Huo Yuhao calmed down.
The condition for Xiaohai Douluo is to find the secret place in the sea and, by any means necessary, liberate the souls of his wife and his wife's sister.
First, Huo Yuhao didn't know where the Great Ocean Secret Realm was. Second, even if he did know, even a powerful figure like Xiaohai Douluo paid a considerable price when he left, let alone a nobody like him who had only just reached the threshold of the eighth ring.
Most importantly, what did he have to offer in negotiations with the people of the secret land of the sea?
That was practically the sea god's representative on earth.
Can we win?
That's definitely something we can't win against.
That thing is a soul beast, not a human.
Unless one breaks through their own limits.
Even a powerful figure like Elder Xuan had to risk his life to face Di Tian.
Moreover, there is the mermaid race that has lived in the ocean since the time of the sea god.
Perhaps they are the true beast gods.
After careful consideration, Huo Yuhao ultimately chose to refuse.
Because there are too many uncertainties in the future.
"I'm sorry, senior, I can't agree to this condition, and you don't need to use yourself as a bargaining chip."
"My brother said that one should not accept rewards without merit, and I cannot fulfill your conditions."
Xiaohai Douluo was somewhat surprised. In his opinion, how could a special soul master who could manipulate corpses to fight refuse his skeleton, which was already at its limit?
This is unlikely.
Is it possible that my conditions are too harsh?
That's true. Even I couldn't accomplish this when I was alive, so how could this junior possibly do it?
Having figured it out, Xiaohai Douluo could only sigh.
Revenge is hopeless...
"Enough, I acted impulsively. You're right, even when I was alive, I couldn't do anything to the Great Sea Secret Realm, even though I had already cultivated to the limit." Xiaohai Douluo's voice grew softer and softer.
"There aren't many ultimate powerhouses left on the mainland," Huo Yuhao explained.
Next, Xiaohai Douluo did not disturb Huo Yuhao any longer in performing the ritual to release the souls trapped there.
One after another, lost souls were purified, transforming into pure white, flawless clouds of mist.
Xiaohai Douluo looked up at the huge hole he had punched and muttered, "It's time."
Huo Yuhao almost exhausted all the power of his spiritual clones before he could purify the souls within all the buildings, including the five towers and the Sea God Temple.
After all, ordinary believers made up the majority of them, and there were only a little over two hundred Soul Masters like Xiaohai Douluo.
Huo Yuhao, who was already somewhat transparent, turned his head and looked around. Where was Xiaohai Douluo?
"nailed it?"
The voice of Xiaohai Douluo came from the doorway, and he was holding a silver trident in his hand.
"We're just waiting for you to break through this barrier, senior," Huo Yuhao said.
Xiaohai Douluo weighed the trident in his hand, then with a swift motion, he used his palm as a blade to slice off the sharp points on both sides of the trident.
The trident with its two corners cut off has been transformed into a cross-shaped spear.
"That way, if you're discovered by the merfolk in the future, you'll most likely not be recognized," Douluo Xiaohai chuckled.
"Senior, what do you mean?" Huo Yuhao looked at the soul fire flickering in Xiaohai Douluo's eye sockets, and his left eyelid suddenly began to twitch.
Muddy said that a twitching left eye means good fortune, while a twitching right eye means bad luck. Could it be...?
Xiaohai Douluo slowly lowered his body, holding the battle spear in reverse. He used his powerful soul force to lift the two sharp horns, and they flew out like a dragon emerging from the sea.
The two dragons crashed violently into the barrier.
The core that Xiaohai Douluo had mentioned before had already been seized by him.
"Young man, I acknowledge you. The conditions have changed. If you are lucky enough to find my wife and sister, please do your best to purify and liberate them. My skeleton will automatically sense the relatives etched into my soul!"
"Although these old bones of mine are a bit worn out, I hope that giving them to you will be of some help."
"Alright kid, get ready to hide over there, things are about to get pretty noisy!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao no longer hesitated, immediately dispelling his mental clone and returning his consciousness to his main body.
Fortunately, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor had already taken Huo Yuhao's main body and flown away from that layer of crystal ice.
The moment Huo Yuhao woke up, he shouted, "Perpetual Frozen Ice Domain! Full defense!"
Hyotei instinctively followed Huo Yuhao's instructions.
The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion's torso bones burst forth with a dazzling light.
A turquoise light swept across the frozen land.
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm immediately erected a mental barrier.
The two bear kings instantly understood what was about to happen, and their massive bodies immediately blocked Huo Yuhao's path.
Before the souls could prepare.
The next moment, a sharp sound, like glass about to shatter, rang out.
The layer of crystal-clear ice expanded like a bubble, or was covered with cracks like glass.
Upon closer inspection, the four spirits realized that it was actually two dragons frantically tearing at the crystal-clear ice layer.
"The dragon soars out to sea."
A loud shout echoed throughout the entire glacier.
A flying fin sea dragon smashed through the crystal-clear ice layer and soared into the sky.
"What the hell is that?!"
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm sensed the imminent threat of death.
Not only it, but also Hyotei and the two great bear kings felt the same way.
That terrifying force that suffocated them.
"po!"
The crystal-clear ice layer shattered completely.
What followed was a white torrent.
The latest novel is first published here!
Those were souls trapped in the temple of the sea god for countless years.
"Thank you."
While Huo Yuhao was still in shock, he seemed to hear faint voices of gratitude in his ear.
One by one, souls were able to see the light of day again, be purified and liberated, and a rare sunny day appeared in this glacial region ravaged by blizzards.
Under the clear sunlight, the souls dissipated like wisps of air.
A bright rainbow appeared on the horizon, as if guiding weary souls toward their journey to the afterlife.
Huo Yuhao watched this scene quietly, and he suddenly understood why Ye Nanxiao always liked to use a round ball to record it.
At this moment, he also wanted to use some means to capture the scenery he saw and pass it down to future generations.
But before Huo Yuhao could even appreciate this breathtaking scenery for long...
A loud, unpleasant voice rang out.
"Hey! Kid! Don't forget I'm still waiting for you to perform the rites of deliverance! If you don't, I'll lose track of the whole group!"
Xiaohai Douluo leaped up and used the battle spear in his hand to hang on the ice wall to watch Huo Yuhao.
"Holy crap!"
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm subconsciously swept his mental energy over, and then, Xiaohai Douluo's terrifying pressure startled him.
Hyotei was on high alert, and violent frost gathered.
Huo Yuhao quickly spoke up to stop them, "Wait, don't be nervous."
"This is one of my seniors."
senior?
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor were immediately surprised.
When did Yuhao recognize a skeleton as his senior?
Is that the power left behind by Elder Yi?
Huo Yuhao chose to explain to Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and the other spirits later, as he needed to continue the mission while his mental strength was still sufficient.
Just as Xiaohai Douluo said, if he had been any later, he would have missed the main group.
The magic circle unfolded once more, landing on Xiaohai Douluo, and beams of soft white light continuously illuminated his weathered soul.
Feeling his soul being sublimated, Xiaohai Douluo broke open an ice hole, then sat down cross-legged inside.
"Young man, if one day you can find the old couple and your sister, please tell them that I am sorry for not being able to protect our home. But please rest assured, I will now protect my family and friends, and our souls will be together."
This time, Xiaohai Douluo's voice was filled with emotion. His feelings were no longer limited to necromancy, but drifted away in the form of a soul.
The burly man in armor, also known as Xiaohai Douluo, bowed to Huo Yuhao, a gesture he had previously observed Huo Yuhao perform.
Huo Yuhao returned the greeting and watched Xiaohai Douluo ascend into the sky, stepping onto the rainbow and slowly disappearing into the horizon with the believers of the Sea God Temple.
The skeleton of Xiaohai Douluo sat quietly cross-legged.
After doing all this, Huo Yuhao immediately ran into the ice cave and lay down.
He was completely exhausted.
The spirits Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor have many questions, but they are waiting for Huo Yuhao to recover before they can ask any more.
But given the current situation, they seem to have made a huge profit?
Huo Yuhao rested for a full day, and that was only after recovering his mental strength with the help of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
"We've gone big, and now we have a new partner."
Huo Yuhao bowed to the skeleton of Xiaohai Douluo once again, then patted the skeleton's shoulder.
A gray halo slowly enveloped it.
A grey flame of soul fire ignited in the skeleton's eye sockets.
The skeleton regained the ability to move.
"I'll call you Venerable Sea."
Venerable Hai nodded slowly, standing ramrod straight like a bodyguard.
Before Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, Ice Emperor, and the two Great Bear Kings could react to what was happening, they saw Huo Yuhao, with Sea Venerable, already standing on a floating ice floe.
"Let's go, into the city! There are still plenty of treasures inside. I'm going to be rich this time! From now on, Nijang will have to fawn over me!"
